Rectangular plate in Bizen ware featuring a quietly refined form and a distinctive cloth-like surface texture characteristic of traditional Bizen clay work.
The surface reveals natural kiln effects from wood firing, with soft transitions between warm reddish-brown tones and darker areas where flame and ash interacted directly with the clay.

Bizen-Yaki (Okayama Prefecture) is created using the Yakishime method of firing unglazed wares at high temperatures.
Using red pine wood in the firing process beautiful natural colors and tones emerge from the clay.
Bizen clay has a high iron content which enables the pottery to retain heat or remain cool.
Bizen -Yaki reflects the Japanese artistic sensibility emphasising inner beauty and subtlety.
